In the case where the TMPDIR env variable isn't specified, what is the default assumed by Open MPI/orte? > Just out of curiosity: although I know you have different arch's on > your > nodes, the tests you are running are all executing on the same arch, > correct??? Yes, tests all execute on the same arch, although I am led to another question. Can I use a headnode of a particular arch, but in my mpirun hostfile, specify only nodes of another arch, and launch from the headnode? In other words, no computation is done on the headnode of arch A, all computation is done on nodes of arch B, but the job is launched from the headnode -- would that be acceptable? I should be clear that for the problem you are helping me with, *all* the nodes involved are running the same arch, OS, compiler, system libraries, etc. The multiple arch question is for edification for the future. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Got a little couch potato?
